Tell us about your life before you started the program. How did you feel about yourself and your body?
I hated myself. I did not like the way I looked in pictures or activities at all. I was 262 pounds and 5’9″. I was feeling the weight in my legs. I had zero motivation and zero confidence. It was affecting my life in every area. I was not caring at all to the point that I was going to get fired from my job. Then this happened.

What inspired you to change your life and begin your transformation journey?
I needed to do something for myself. I researched about INSANITY first, and saw how people were changing their lives with the program. I hated my life and my job back then. I was kind of a laughing matter there. So I decided to try something and show them that it did not matter how toxic they were. I was going to do something for myself, and I learned how to channel all that negativity into the workouts. Next I did MAX:30, and then I wanted to do Body Beast to pack on muscle.

What is the greatest challenge you faced before beginning the program? How did the program and Beachbody help you overcome that challenge?
My biggest challenge I faced before Body Beast was having the equipment. There was also a major setback all the time. Hourly changes at work and crazy schedules were also difficult, but I had my head in it. I learned from INSANITY and MAX:30 to not make excuses. With Body Beast, time and money were big obstacles. I decided to go for it and did get the program with the Extreme Nutrition. Body Beast helped me by being a challenge every day. I just was addicted to the program. I am one to do programs by the book with zero alterations; that is how I know they work. It did not matter how bad the day was; once I was at the gym doing Body Beast, everything was gone. The only thing in my head was challenging myself to be a better me every day. I could not wait until the next workout just to see if I was able to increase weight or do better, or for the time to go by just to see my progress. It got to the point that I became my own motivation, bringing my own rain and doing whatever it takes thanks to Sagi and Body Beast.

What in particular did you like about the program you chose?
The motivation, the challenge, the pump, and the results.

Describe the results you achieved with your Beachbody program. Which achievements are you proud of?
I have gained 20 pounds in muscle with nice definition. I am very proud of that and the confidence I have gained, as well as how my life has changed in every aspect.

How has your life changed since completing your Beachbody program?
I am in no way who I was at the beginning of my journey. I have gained so much confidence in myself that people can actually see how confident in myself I am. Now I do not mind going to the beach, pools, or anywhere. I take pictures left and right, and I am happy right now. I have become one with my workouts and this new life. It is a beautiful thing. I will keep training and getting better. My parents are extremely proud and happy with the way I live right now. You can take everything else away, and that will be the only thing that matters to me. I have gained so much respect in my job and other areas in my life that I will never want to go back to the person in the “before” picture. From now on, I will bring my own rain and do whatever it takes!

How did your Team Beachbody Coach support you on your journey?
